I was hugely disappointed that the line kazaks in coldfront didn't have seperate arms. And were instead half attached to the torso already. I had planned on doing some arm swaps with their own kit and the eventual swc box like I had with the usariadnan grunts to get some more variations in the base poses. I really dislike having duplicate posed models. Looks like alot of future models are gonna be getting much harder to do more casual conversions and swaps on.
I build many metal miniatures from different companies and the new Dakinis were an absolute pleasure. Literaly no gaps on the arms, no filling needed and the feet are easy to glue on the legs and there is not much room for positioning, so they are flat on the base. And you have your pin for glueing to the base delivered. CB even improved its quality over previous sets and boxes and that is not that easy when keeping in mind, that they already do the best/some of the beats miniatures out there. Im so in love with the Dakini HMG sculpt, I hope for november.
Have we had the 4th mini in the Dakini SWC box confirmed? It's currently paramedic, HG and sniper right? We've seen the render for the Deva Spitfire, given the Securitate box with the grenzer I wouldn't be surprised (in fact I'd be chuffed) if that's the 4th mini
That assumes A) there even is a 4th mini and B) the Deva isn't just separate. IIRC they both were previewed apart close to each other so why not put them in the same render image if they're in the same box? Either way, we'll see, I guess. It makes sense to box them like that, just didn't make sense to show the renders apart if the Deva is indeed part of that box.
The Dakinis got bigger but they didn't get so much bigger that they'd make sense as a 3 model set. The Deva and Dakinis were shown "close to each other" but CB is known to hold stuff back for certain events.
I'm still holding out hope that an LGL Dakini will be in the box, since the profile didn't get yanked.
CB's apparent aversion to light grenade launchers in the SWC boxes of late is odd. The Celestial Guard is the first GL in a while I think, and intended to be smoke. No LGL in Moderators, apparently no LGL for Dakinis. Also, as the only Aleph grenadier, we have no idea what the LGL even looks like, do we? Still, at least we're assured of no pointless hacker in the Dakini box. OR ARE WE?!
And the Celestial Guard Smoke LGL is in there because it's the Kuang Shi Controller, not because it's the LGL.
They didn't have an SWC box, just enough troops sold in blisters to have filled one. And no Multi-Sniper ever before the profile was yanked by the uprising. Apparently they had inventory for sniper rifles but they never arrived in time
Yeah, Keisotsu predated the idea of an SWC box. Technically, they predated the JSA starter box! And of course, about the time I get ready to paint my converted Keisotsu sniper (sculpted hakama and headswapped a Celestial Guard sniper), that profile goes away...
I'm new to all those speculations and Infinity. What about those character models, like Raoul and company? There are a lot of them missing minis right now. How does CB handle those? Are they sprinkled in here and there? Will there be another Outrage?
